RIDGE’S HEART REVEALS THE TRUTH: BROOKE REMAINS HIS DESTINY DESPITE TAYLOR REUNION
The eternal love triangle on The Bold and the Beautiful has taken another dramatic turn, but a telling pattern has emerged through decades of Ridge Forrester’s back-and-forth between Brooke Logan and Taylor Hayes. Even as Ridge tries to build a future with Taylor following the Forrester Creations takeover drama, history reveals a truth that even he can’t escape.
THE ONE-SIDED OBSESSION THAT DEFINES A DECADES-LONG TRIANGLE
When Ridge is with Brooke, he’s fully present – consumed by their connection and never giving Taylor a second thought. Yet when he’s with Taylor, Brooke haunts him like a shadow that won’t disappear. This troubling imbalance explains why, despite his best intentions with Taylor, Ridge inevitably finds his way back to Brooke time and again.
The pattern has repeated through eight marriages, countless breakups, and thirty-plus years of drama. Ridge may run to Taylor when Brooke hurts him – as he did after the recent Forrester takeover orchestrated by Hope and Carter – but his heart reveals the truth in who occupies his thoughts.
HISTORY DOESN’T LIE: RIDGE’S PATTERN OF RETURNING TO BROOKE
This isn’t mere speculation – the evidence spans decades. Back in 1994, when Taylor was presumed dead, Ridge married Brooke and described her as the “true love of his life.” Even when Taylor miraculously returned in 1995, Ridge initially stayed with Brooke before circumstances forced him back to Taylor. The conflicted feelings were obvious even then.

HISTORY DOESN’T LIE: RIDGE’S PATTERN OF RETURNING TO BROOKE
This isn’t mere speculation – the evidence spans decades. Back in 1994, when Taylor was presumed dead, Ridge married Brooke and described her as the “true love of his life.” Even when Taylor miraculously returned in 1995, Ridge initially stayed with Brooke before circumstances forced him back to Taylor. The conflicted feelings were obvious even then.
Fast forward to 2006, when Taylor’s confession of a past infidelity gave Ridge the perfect excuse to return to Brooke – revealing his heart had been with her all along. Again in 2011, after briefly dating Taylor, he rushed back to Brooke once Thomas’s lie was exposed, showing where his primary attachment truly lay.
Now in 2025, we’re seeing the same script play out. After Brooke’s involvement in the Forrester Creations takeover drama, Ridge has once again sought comfort in Taylor’s arms. But if history teaches us anything, it’s that this reunion has an expiration date.
TAYLOR DESERVES MORE THAN BEING RIDGE’S SECOND CHOICE
Even now, as Taylor celebrates what she believes is a final victory over her rival, the writing is on the wall. Sources close to the show reveal Brooke is already planning a heartfelt plea to win Ridge back – and based on history, it’s only a matter of time before he wavers.
The recent confrontation where Taylor caught Brooke making another play for Ridge highlights the never-ending cycle. While Taylor might be furious at her rival’s persistence, perhaps she should instead question why Ridge can’t fully commit to her without Brooke’s shadow looming over them.
Steffy Forrester continues encouraging her parents’ reunion, blinded by her own desire to see her family whole again. But at what cost to her mother’s dignity? Taylor is a successful psychiatrist who has helped countless patients – shouldn’t she recognize this unhealthy pattern in her own relationship?
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PATTERN THAT KEEPS RIDGE TRAPPED
For all her flaws, Brooke represents adventure, passion, and the unpredictable to Ridge – qualities that seduce him back time and again despite the stability and understanding Taylor offers. This explains why when he’s with Brooke, he’s completely immersed in their world, while his time with Taylor often feels like a temporary shelter from the storm.
Even Katherine Kelly Lang acknowledged the triangle’s staying power in a recent interview, calling it “magic” – though she didn’t directly address why Ridge keeps returning to Brooke. The answer seems clear through the pattern of his behavior: Brooke is his true north, while Taylor represents the safe harbor he seeks when things get rough.
THE FORRESTER FAMILY DYNAMICS FUELING THE TRIANGLE
The current situation is further complicated by Steffy and Thomas Forrester’s long-standing desire to see their parents reunited. Their manipulation has played a role in previous reunions – remember when Thomas faked a CPS call to frame Brooke and drive Ridge to Taylor? Even when that deception was exposed, Ridge eventually found his way back to Taylor anyway, showing how external factors continue to influence his romantic decisions.
Meanwhile, Brooke’s daughter Hope Logan has been caught in her own romantic drama with Carter Walton, adding another layer of tension to the Forrester-Logan feud. The company takeover that pushed Ridge back to Taylor this time has made Hope a pariah at Forrester Creations. Despite this, Brooke remains determined to fight for Ridge, suggesting she knows something Taylor doesn’t – that Ridge’s heart ultimately belongs to her.
WHAT FANS ARE SAYING ABOUT RIDGE’S DIVIDED HEART
Longtime fans of the show have noticed this pattern for years. On social media, viewers frequently point out that Ridge never mentions Taylor when things are good with Brooke, yet he can’t stop comparing Taylor to Brooke when they’re together. This one-sided obsession has led many to question if Ridge truly loves either woman, or if he’s simply incapable of being alone.
“He’s been doing this dance for decades,” one fan commented online. “When will Taylor realize she deserves better than being his backup plan?” Another noted, “Notice how Ridge immediately ran to Taylor after the fight with Brooke? Classic pattern – he uses Taylor as a comfort blanket but always returns to his ‘destiny.’”
WILL THIS TIME BE DIFFERENT? HISTORY SUGGESTS OTHERWISE
As Steffy celebrates her parents’ reunion, longtime viewers know better than to expect this happiness to last. The dramatic fallout from the Forrester Creations takeover may have driven Ridge back to Taylor for now, but the real test will come when Brooke’s latest reunion plea forces him to confront his true feelings.
For Taylor’s sake, we hope she finally realizes she deserves someone who thinks of her – and only her – when they’re together. Because if history is any indication, Ridge will never be that man.
THE BROOKE-RIDGE CONNECTION THAT NEVER FADES
Perhaps most telling is how quickly Ridge forgives Brooke for transgressions that would end most relationships. From affairs to business betrayals, he may storm off to Taylor temporarily, but the pull of his bond with Brooke inevitably draws him back. It’s a connection that transcends logic – one that both Ridge and Brooke have described as “destiny” throughout the years.
As Brooke prepares to make her case for reconciliation, the real question isn’t whether Ridge will eventually return to her – history suggests that’s inevitable. The question is how much heartbreak Taylor will endure before she finally walks away from this toxic triangle for good.
For now, Ridge and Taylor are enjoying their reunion, with Steffy playing cheerleader. But in the background, Brooke waits – patient and confident – knowing that sooner or later, Ridge’s heart will lead him back to where it truly belongs.
